If it was "shut down" by the admins, then that's just the admins being lazy in doing the research regarding their own product - which is their loss (and ultimately our loss as I sit with 900 FP right now and nothing I want to do with it)

Actually IIRC they consulted with their legal. Or at least that was what Catch communicated.

And a law firm > your thoughts on the matter.

Adding images to the forums...would be soooo sweet.

I would love this, just so I could see what you would post.

Allow you to earn S* points while you have a S*.

Keep Legend S*s and allow agents to build new S*'s.

Have a draft style tournament with Legend players (would generate flex spending for legend players)

Player notes so I can remember what stats im building, what SA's I want, where I plan on using Cap Boosters, ect

So they cannot hire a 3rd dev guy but they can hire a lawyer?

As much as I'd like to say all the suggestions I've posted before............

I'd actually say a better focus on getting new players interested and retaining them. I generally make it a point not to criticize anyone else's business model, but as this is a "wish" thread I'd just generally say I've never seen a business with less emphasis on attracting new customers and then transferring them into payment status.

Would have been great to have a steady flow of new people with new ideas.

Catch actually was a lawyer I am pretty sure.

Interesting, how would you accomplish that?

Few things mentioned that I liked...

*HoF for my individual team's best players

*Custom fields for home teams, which could be so simple as end zones matching team colors.

*More plays

*More formations

*Yahoo users being able to see User Names under Avatars

*Yahoo users being able to login without using yahoo first

*Able to buy flex on more than one browser (Mozilla currently for me only)

*Links to watch games live instead of having to use "Inspect Element" all the time

The first one is a bug that was probably missed.

The second one is a rule of Yahoo, so you'll have to take that up with Yahoo, though I'd guess you won't get far.

Gotcha on second.

What about the bug where I can't buy flex but on one browser? Or is that something on my end?

Playbooks and players listed in alphabetical order by default would be nice too, maybe order saved to profile. Same for retired players.

Every business has some sort of legal they refer to. In small businesses especially, it's an outsourced but needed person. Everything from structuring your business to trademarks. It's usually on consult, not a salaried person.

And it's not a choice. It's like saying you can choose to pay a developer instead of having someone to do the accounting. You need someone to make the product, someone to sell the product and someone to watch/take care of the money. You can't just have everyone make the product.

Also - I would implement this idea that I pitched over 6 years ago -- and I would still love it -- and I still believe it would make the game a lot more fun.

Ability to watch a game replay in a group -- ie: all watching the same game replay screen - so could chat / analyze / cheer / cry together as the game progressed.

Just looking at a game this week -- how fun would it be if 10 or more people were watching the Assassins / Harrisonburg game - play by play -- rooting for whichever team you chose in the chat. It would be 1000 times better than what happens now: watch the game by yourself - make a post saying "what a game" or whatever.

Two things.

One, instead of how fun would it be, how embarrassing and useless would it be if there were zero people, which would be the case for 99% of the games.

Secondly, it would be an open endorsement for the "watch party" hacky thing to watch the games as they sim...which would cause uproars when a game needs to be resimmed.
